New Book, 'Value Investing in Asia,' Offers Comprehensive Guide to Investing in Asian Stock Markets

SINGAPORE - Jan. 15, 2018 - PRLog -- Despite the challenges and risks, Asian markets represent significant opportunity, especially for investors seeking long-term growth. A new book by Wiley, Value Investing in Asia: The Definitive Guide to Investing in Asia, presents a gateway for both new and experienced investors seeking practical reference to new opportunities in Asian markets while addressing key challenges unique to Asian investing.

Most value investing advice is geared toward US markets, leaving out the key guidance that pertains specifically to investing in publicly listed Asian companies — guidance that is critical for success. Value Investing in Asia focuses on the opportunities and challenges of Asian markets, including current and historical case studies that illustrate various successes, risks and pitfalls.

"The financial education in our book offers to empower all investors with the information and tools they need to enable them to become their best personal fund managers," said the Singapore-based authors Stanley Lim and Cheong Mun Hong.

The step-by-step guidance in the book is designed to help investors unearth great opportunities in Asia; from appreciating the macroeconomic situation, to narrowing down on specific investment opportunities. Invaluable for both new and experienced investors, this practical reference will show all investors how to apply value investing principles specifically to Asian stocks.

Value Investing in Asia provides a clear outline of key Asian markets, including Greater China, Southeast Asia and the frontier markets of South Asia, with a step-by-step approach to navigating the specific challenges of investing in publicly listed Asian companies. It also features exclusive interviews with well-known value investors in Asia, namely Mr. Wong Kok Hoi of APS Asset Management, Dr. Tan Chong Koay of Pheim Asset Management and Dr. David Kuo of Motley Fool (Singapore). Readers can gain insight into how these investors, each of whom has a unique value investing perspective, have consistently gained from the Asian stock market over the years.

Investing in Asia comes with an inherent set of unique challenges that must be understood before any decisions are made; some of these challenges are the result of operating practices, some are the result of regulatory issues while others come from the markets themselves — yet regardless of the source, value investors in particular bear the brunt of the obstacles. This book will show investors what they need to know, and how to invest intelligently in Asian companies.

Value Investing in Asia: The Definitive Guide to Investing in Asia is now available at all major bookstores and online book retailers in the region wherever books and e-books are sold. For more information, visit the publisher's website at: http://www.wiley.com/buy/9781119391180.
